Turner disappointed with gates at Edgar Street

In his post match comments on the Hereford United Official Website as reported by Teamtalk, manager Graham Turner expresses his disappointment with the level of attandances recently.

"The biggest disappointment for me was the attendance on Saturday," said Turner.

"Just 2,800 when you're second in the league and having just come off the back of a victory at Leeds is poor.

"It's not the cost of so many games because it's the same people that come and watch us and they find the money.

"It is the support that was with us in the conference that has disappeared totally and I can't figure out why."

Hereford's average League gate this season to date is 3085 down 7% on last season's final figure. Overall the League Two gates are up 3.2%. Much of the increase is due to extra support at Bradford, Milton Keynes Dons and Morecambe where attendances have doubled.

Meanwhile the VP club at Edgar Street was without it's usual staff last Saturday after a dispute. Two committee members ran the bar.
